    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neutron_star_Interior...

    The Neutron Star Interior Composition ExploreR (NICER) is a NASA telescope on the International Space Station, designed and dedicated to the study of the extraordinary gravitational, electromagnetic, and nuclear physics environments embodied by neutron stars, exploring the exotic states of matter where density and pressure are higher than in atomic nuclei.

    NASA described the star as "a rapidly spinning neutron star which is spewing energy out into the space around it to create complex and intriguing structures, including one that resembles a large cosmic hand". [7] It is also known by the name "Hand of God". [8] This phenomenon is called pareidolia.

    Pressure increases accordingly, from about 3.2 × 10 31 Pa (32 QPa) at the inner crust to 1.6 × 10 34 Pa in the center. [26] A neutron star is so dense that one teaspoon (5 milliliters) of its material would have a mass over 5.5 × 10 12 kg, about 900 times the mass of the Great Pyramid of Giza.

    Zooming to RX J1856.5−3754 which is one of the Magnificent Seven and, at a distance of about 400 light-years, the closest-known neutron star. Neutron stars are the collapsed cores of supergiant stars. [1] They are created as a result of supernovas and gravitational collapse, [2] and are the second-smallest and densest class of stellar objects ...

    Zooming in on the very faint neutron star RX J1856.5–3754 Hubble image of RX J1856.5−3754—the first direct observation of an isolated neutron star in visible light. RX J1856.5−3754 is thought to have formed in a supernova explosion of its companion star about one million years ago and is moving across the sky at 108 km/s.

  7. PSR J0952–0607 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PSR_J0952–0607

    PSR J0952–0607 is a massive millisecond pulsar in a binary system, located between 3,200–5,700 light-years (970–1,740 pc) from Earth in the constellation Sextans. [6] It holds the record for being the most massive neutron star known as of 2022, with a mass 2.35 ± 0.17 times that of the Sun—potentially close to the Tolman–Oppenheimer–Volkoff mass upper limit for neutron stars.
